GRAM Whale vs Retail Delta
The GRAM whale vs retail delta: the share of top traders' GRAM position that is long minus the share of all accounts that are long, in percentage points. The chart holds Gate readings since 16 Jun 2026 only, when this site started recording GRAM. Below it: where today's reading ranks in the past 30 days and year, and what price did after the year's most extreme readings.
GRAM whales are 2.7 pp less long than retail (Gate top traders' positions 49.1% long vs 51.8% of all accounts). The delta is up 1.3 pp in 24 hours. Since 16 Jun 2026 it ranged from -38.7 pp (16 Jun 2026) to +12.7 pp (17 Jul 2026). After the top 5% of hourly readings (above +7.4 pp), GRAM was higher 7 days later 43% of the time, median -2.0%, over 118 readings on 19 days. That describes the past and is not a trading signal.

What GRAM did after extreme readings
2612 hourly readings since 16 Jun 2026| Readings | Hours (days) | 24h median | 24h hit rate | 7d median | 7d hit rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Top 5%: whales most long vs retail | 131 (19) | -1.5% n=118 | 22% | -2.0% n=118 | 43% |
| Bottom 5%: whales least long vs retail | 131 (16) | +0.9% n=37 | 24% | -6.2% n=31 | 90% |
Top 5%: readings of +7.4 pp or more; bottom 5%: -11.0 pp or less. A hit is a rise after the top 5% (whales leaned long) and a fall after the bottom 5%. For comparison, across every hourly reading GRAM was higher 24 hours later 51% of the time (median +0.1%, n=2219) and 7 days later 38% (median -2.0%). Prices: Binance spot GRAM/USDT, hourly closes where this site recorded them, else daily closes. Readings cluster in episodes, so the samples overlap and are smaller than they look. This describes the past; it is not a trading signal and not financial advice.
How to read it. The delta is the share of top traders' GRAM position that is long minus the share of all accounts that are long, in percentage points. Retail accounts usually lean long, so the delta sits below zero much of the time; what matters is where it stands against its own history. The chart shows Binance and Gate separately.

GRAM whale vs retail FAQ
What is the GRAM whale vs retail delta?
The share of GRAM's top traders' combined position that is long, minus the share of all accounts with a GRAM position that are long, in percentage points. Top traders are Binance's top 20% of futures users by margin balance, weighted by position size; the accounts ratio counts every account once.
How is the "after extremes" table built?
We take the hourly readings of the past year, keep the highest 5% and the lowest 5%, and compare GRAM's Binance spot price at each reading with the price 24 hours and 7 days later: from hourly closes where this site has them, else from daily closes. The hit rate is how often price moved the way the whales leaned (up after the top 5%, down after the bottom 5%). Readings bunch together in episodes, so the number of distinct days is shown too.
Is it a trading signal?
No. The table describes what happened after past readings, before fees and funding, and a year holds only a handful of episodes. Nothing here is financial advice.
